Zodiac sign vs Ruling planets

The earth’s 360-degree orbit around the sun is divided every 30 degrees resulting in 12 equal parts, called zodiac signs. In astrology, the angles of the stars, the planets, and the sun at the time of your birth may reveal something about your personality, your physical traits, your relationships—this interpretation falls under horary astrology. Generally, when we say zodiac sign, we refer to our sun sign. The zodiac refers to the twelve signs from Aries to Pisces. You have a zodiac sign for every planet.

In astrology, our zodiac signs correspond to constellations of stars. But the planets in our solar system are much closer than the constellations of our zodiac signs, and therefore, have a massive influence over us. The ruling planets of each zodiac sign are the bosses. They represent foundational characteristics about each of us, how we interact with ourselves and others, and can even pinpoint what we might excel at in our careers.
